The Steelers are already guaranteed a spot in the playoffs but still have much to play for in the final game. They could still, although a bit of a remote chance, win the AFC North and take over the #2 seed. The Patiots and Ravens would both have to lose and the Steelers would have to win for that scenario to unfold.

More realistically though, the Ravens could fall to the Bengals and allow the Steelers to leap frog them and take over 1st place in the AFC North. If that doesn't happen, Pittsburgh will be going on the road.

There is still one game left and the Browns will be out to play the spoiler and the Steelers chances of finishing out with a win.

Roethlisberger, Woodley, and Sanders are all questionable as of Wednesday. Tomlin said they are all have a chance to play but we'll see how it goes as the week goes on.

**Update** Roethlisberger, Pouncey, Gilbert, and Sanders will all play today. Woodley still is not ready to come back but look for him to return for the post season.

My opinion, Not that it really matters' is that they should play Batch and sit Big Ben out unless Charlie gets behind and they really need Ben. Give that ankle time to heal completely for the playoffs.

Latest updates have Ben playing in this game, starting but possibly being pulled after 30 snaps or so.

Woodley is out.

Sanders, Pouncey, and Gilbert all look to return.

Hines needs 5 catches to reach 1000 for his career.

If the Steelers win and the Ravens lose, Pittsburgh gets the division title.

So, if you really wan't to see this you will just have to go to Cleveland at night on a Saturday in the summertime.

The management.
